DM Brainiac's War for the Crown: Table 1 (Inactive)

Game Master Brainiac

"Could use some healing here, Zil. If you've got any," Zhi calls out.

Zileska wades into the fray to provide Zhi with a touch of sweet relief.

You get a heal!

Waiting to see if the Secret Shade is rendered helpless

Will: 1d20 + 14 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 14 - 4 = 18
Chance to Ignore: 1d100 ⇒ 69

The Secret Shade seizes up, paralyzed again by Melodie's magic!

Sara slips one of her heels off and inserts it into where she imagines the Shade's mouth to be, curving down and entering its throat, and then out through its neck.

"Suck my lily white ass," she growls.

Coup de Grace, -5 STR: 6d8 + 27 ⇒ (2, 8, 2, 7, 4, 8) + 27 = 58

As the shade is occupied with Sara's heel down its throat, Zhi takes advantage by shoving her rapier into the being's back.

Rapier Attack of Opportunity: 1d20 + 19 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 19 + 1 + 4 = 41 haste, outflank
Rapier Damage: 1d6 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 9 + 3 = 18 arcane strike

Rapier Attack Crit Confirm: 1d20 + 19 + 1 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 19 + 1 + 4 = 39 haste, outflank
Rapier Damage: 1d6 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 9 + 3 = 16 arcane strike

Opponent is -6 to Will saves for rounds equal to number of hits.

Back at ya, Sara.

Weakened but still capable, Sara kicks the thing square in the chest, piercing its shadowy form and hampering its ability to move or defend itself.

"You're not getting away this time you ugly f%@*."

To Hit, OF, Haste, Helpless, -5 STR, PA: 1d20 + 29 + 4 + 1 + 4 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 29 + 4 + 1 + 4 - 2 - 4 = 45
Damage: 2d8 + 9 + 8 ⇒ (5, 3) + 9 + 8 = 25
Deadly Surprise Immediate Action Entangle: 1d20 + 28 + 4 + 1 + 4 - 2 - 4 ⇒ (12) + 28 + 4 + 1 + 4 - 2 - 4 = 43
Duration: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Remember incorporeal creatures are immune to both critical hits and sneak attack damage. I will keep the damage as written so far assuming Sara chose to full attack instead of coup de grace.

Sara and Zhi rip into the Secret Shade, badly damaging the shadow. The karumzek falls back further into the room and throws a bomb at Sara. The nearly mindless vine attacks Maria, but fails to get through her defenses.

Bomb: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (7) + 18 = 25
Fire Damage: 4d6 + 4 ⇒ (2, 6, 5, 4) + 4 = 21
Bite, Vines: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (14) + 15 = 291d20 + 13 ⇒ (1) + 13 = 141d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 151d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 221d20 + 13 ⇒ (16) + 13 = 29

21 fire damage to Sara. Maria may make up to five additional saves against the captivating cloud to try to regain her senses (one for each attack against her). Everybody may act.

Furious, Sara slams her held heel twice into the Shade's head before slipping her shoe back on and giving it a mighty kick!

Quick Dirty Trick, Haste, Outflank, Helpless, Flurry, -5 STR, Dazzle: 1d20 + 28 + 1 + 4 + 4 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 28 + 1 + 4 + 4 - 2 - 2 = 44

Dazed (no actions) for at least 7 rounds no save, unless immune to mind affecting effects

Is there a spot where I can land a flame strike? Remember it's got a pretty small area, it's just a tall cylinder.

Sorry, I didn't realize that the shade was actually incorporeal. I thought it was just a title.

Happy to have their foe right where they want him, Zhi's blades flash as metallic arcs of light as they stab again and again.

The first of the creature's attacks managed to snap her out of it in time to avoid it and the follow-on strikes.

"Wha- Safina! You okay?" Without thinking, Maria started lashing out at the creature with her blade.

Swift for Studied Combat, full-attack.
Attack 1: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (9) + 25 = 34
Attack 2: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (17) + 20 = 37

I also keep forgetting that Maria has this feat.

Zileska, you can target a flame strike to hit just the karumzek and viper vine.

Zileska, you can target a flame strike to hit just the karumzek and viper vine.

Hazzuh! Burn it with fire!

Holy fire, no less.

Zileska reaches up into the air and makes an inarticulate cry, then drags her hand downward. A pillar of fire with tinged with licks of silver races down from above, slamming into the foes.

Flame strike: 15d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 6, 5, 6, 5, 5, 4, 5, 5, 6, 1, 4, 6, 2) = 68

Spell Penetration (just in case): Vine: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16
Spell Penetration (just in case): Karumzek: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (19) + 15 = 34

Melodie laughs, a spine-chilling sound that is all too reminiscent of Kurana. The spider-creature shakes as the sound washes over it.

EPS: 5d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 6, 1, 4) = 16

Keeping Voice on the Shade. His only job is to die!

Zhi gives her wife a quick questioning look before returning her attention the the Shade.

Magic Missiles, 2 rounds worth: 10d4 + 10 ⇒ (1, 4, 2, 4, 3, 4, 4, 1, 3, 2) + 10 = 38
Fortitude: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (12) + 17 = 29
Reflex: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 261d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18

Taldaris blasts the Secret Shade with magic missiles as Zhi and Sara go to town on the undead assassin. The rogue's blade and the brawler's heels rip apart its spectral form, and with a sigh, the shadow fades away into oblivion. Maria stabs the viper vine while Zileska calls down holy fire. The vine is badly damaged but the karumzek seems largely unharmed. It resists Melodie's spell as well.

The karumzek hurls bombs that shatter on the ground between Sara and Zhi. The vine misses Maria several times, severely hampered by Zileska's curse.

Bombs: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (1) + 18 = 191d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 171d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
Bite, Tentacles: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (4) + 15 = 191d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 311d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 151d20 + 13 ⇒ (9) + 13 = 221d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32

Zhi and Sara take 8 fire damage 3 times (Reflex DC 18 for each bomb for half damage). Everybody is up.

Zil seems perturbed that her holy fire has no effect on the karumzek, especially since holy power is supposed to burn even those immune to fire.

She settles for providing the ladies with a quick bolster.

Channel Energy: Healing: 8d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 3, 2, 1, 2, 2, 6) = 23

Reflex Save DC 18: 1d20 + 19 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 19 + 1 = 23
Reflex Save DC 18: 1d20 + 19 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 19 + 1 = 22
Reflex Save DC 18: 1d20 + 19 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 19 + 1 = 24

Wow. Certainly trying to fail one of those saves.

Even with it's current sparkly nature, Zhi shudders at the thought of facing the spider-creature again. She steels herself to the fear and races past the vines to stab at her nemesis.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (8) + 25 = 33

Rapier Attack: 1d20 + 19 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 19 + 1 = 25 haste
Rapier Damage: 1d6 + 9 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 9 + 3 = 17 arcane strike

Her foe vanquished, Sara confidently turns around and begins walloping the viper vine.

To Hit, Haste, Power Attack, BF, -5 STR: 1d20 + 29 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 29 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 = 281d20 + 29 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 29 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 = 321d20 + 29 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 29 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 = 391d20 + 24 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 24 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 = 231d20 + 19 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 19 + 1 - 4 - 2 - 2 = 17

Zhi slips past the viper vine and scores a good hit on the karumzek. Sara pummels the viper vine until it falls, bits of bark and leaves scattered around its torn-up frame.

Maria and Melodie are up.

Eager to end the fight so it was safe to check on Safina, Maria moved to engage the karumzek.

Move to engage, swift for Studied Combat, standard to attack.

Studied Attack: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (6) + 25 = 31
Damage: 1d6 + 1d6 + 13 ⇒ (2) + (5) + 13 = 20

Melodie laughs at the spider-creature again. There's no needs to waste any more powerful magics.

EPS: 5d6 ⇒ (2, 2, 6, 3, 2) = 15

There's no needs to waste any more powerful magics.

Zhi would vehemently disagree. This is a spider; If she had her finger on the launch button for a nuke, she'd push it right now. In her mind there's no such thing as overkill for the eight-legged horrors.

It's ok sweetie. I'll buy some scrolls and ward our house against them in future.

Taldaris Magic Missiles, 2 Rounds: 10d4 + 10 ⇒ (3, 3, 3, 1, 3, 3, 2, 4, 3, 1) + 10 = 36

Taldaris batters the karumzek with magic missiles while Melodie screeches at it. A solid slice from Maria finishes off the spidery outsider, and it falls onto its back, legs curling up as it dies.

"Well fought, lady warriors," Taldaris declares. "The Secret Shade has been destroyed. All that remains now is to recover my halberd. The Shade rose up from beneath us. Perhaps the stairs lead to its sanctum."

Zhi shakes off the almost overwhelming urge to climb into her wife's arms and not come up till spring. She cleans and stows her weapons in an attempt to steady her hands.

"Yes, let's head down the stairs," she says in a voice that only quavers a little.

She checks the stairs for traps before descending.

Perception: 1d20 + 24 ⇒ (6) + 24 = 30

Before Zhi heads downstairs Melodie does take her in her arms for a brief moment. "You did so well darling. I'm really proud of you."

With that she gives her wife a gentle push forwards, and a pat on her behind, before taking up her normal position in the middle of the group.

Zhi seems resistant to her wife's comfort. Reaching up, she wipes at her eyes.

There are no traps on the stairs. Rounded alcoves line this large room, each niche marked by an ornate archway. A raised oval platform faces an inscribed circle at the center of the room. Several desks, shelves, and clothing racks filled with dark garments line the area.

A pair of man-shaped inevitables with glowing red eyes stand at the ready here. Behind them is a horrible scorpion-man that moves with an eerie grace and whose eyes glint with intelligent, murderous intent. "Ah, how fortuitous," the man hisses as he brandishes twin short swords. "Perhaps this operation will not be a total loss after all. Tremble, mortals, for you stand in the presence of the Stabbing Beast! The herald of Norgorber! The Reaper's right hand! Hand over the First Emperor and you will walk away with your pitiful lives. Refuse and you will die in agony!"

Assuming you refuse...

The inevitables use their magic to try to paralyze Sara and Safina. The Stabbing Beast whips its tail forward and fires a spray of poison into Melodie's eyes!

Poison Stream: 1d20 + 29 ⇒ (17) + 29 = 46

Sara and Safina must succeed at DC 18 Will saves or be paralyzed by hold monster. If they fail, they can attempt a new save each round as a full-round action. Melodie must make a DC 25 Fortitude save against poison or take 1d6 Str damage and be blinded for 1d4+1 rounds. Everybody may act!

What is with these things and whacking Mel for STR damage?

Will for Fort: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (14) + 15 = 29

The poison sears Melodie's eyes, but no worse than the days she cried after finding out the truth of her parentage.

"Sit, you horrid thing!" She commands, lashing at the Stabbing Beast's mind.

Hold Monster, -4 on saves etc etc.

Will: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Oof, any chance Mel would have re-implanted Gift of Will or nah? Cause that would turn that roll into a success

Sara begins laughing hysterically at the creature's self given name before freezing in place entirely.

For the purpose of short-term buffs, I'm going under the assumption that it only took two rounds to descend the stairs?

"The Stabbing Beast? What, were you named by an eight-year-old?" Zhi says as she casts another spell and moves to within stabbing range of the beast.

Sure, if we take 30 seconds before we go down I'll refresh any expended tricks.

Gift on Sara, Zhi and Zil still have theirs?

Zileska rolls her eyes. "All these florid names for vermin," she complains. "Well, you know wasps eat spiders and scorpions."

Casting freedom of movement on Sara.

On the way down, Maria would've downed extracts of Spell Resistance, her second Greater False Life one, and her Blur one. So that's an SR of 27, some temp HP I'll be rolling for now, and a 20% miss chance.

Greater False Life: 2d10 + 15 ⇒ (8, 7) + 15 = 30

Figuring that the unimaginatively-named one was the largest threat, Maria moved up after the others to engage it.

Move, Studied, Stab, you know the drill by now.

Studied Attack: 1d20 + 25 ⇒ (1) + 25 = 26
Damage: 1d6 + 1d6 + 13 ⇒ (6) + (1) + 13 = 20

Sara moves in to fight alongside Maria and Zhi and throws sand in the face of the Poker.

Quick Dirty Trick, Blind, -5 STR, Haste: 1d20 + 29 - 2 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 29 - 2 + 1 = 46
Duration: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Melodie SR: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (6) + 19 = 25
Will: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (20) + 14 = 34

The Stabbing Beat shrugs off Melodie's spell. Safina fires on the herald, scoring only one lucky strike. Zhi bulks up before moving in alongside Maria and Sara. The tiefling misses with her attack, but Sara manages to temporarily blind the Beast!

Safina Attacks: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (3) + 16 = 191d20 + 16 ⇒ (2) + 16 = 181d20 + 16 ⇒ (7) + 16 = 231d20 + 11 ⇒ (20) + 11 = 311d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Confirm: 1d20 ⇒ 11d20 ⇒ 7
Damage: 1d8 + 19 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 19 + 7 = 30

The kolyaruts assault Sara and Maria with their swords and blades. Maria escapes harm but Sara is cut and pummeled. The Stabbing Beast blindly assaults Sara, scoring two deep slices with its swords and stinging her with its scorpion tail!

Bastard Sword, Slam vs Sara: 1d20 + 20 ⇒ (16) + 20 = 361d20 + 15 ⇒ (7) + 15 = 221d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 231d20 + 13 ⇒ (20) + 13 = 33

Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 101d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 101d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

72 total damage to Sara. She is taking 2d6 bleed damage and must make a DC 25 Fortitude save against poison or take 1d6 Str damage. Melodie must also make that save or take the Str damage. Everybody is up!

Fort: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 Str: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Melodie curses as her spell fails to hold the herald of Norgorber and she feels the poison continuing to burn. (Multiple saves needed then? :()

"Zil, get Sara!" She calls, voice losing some of its strength but none of its magical potency.

"Sara! You have to destory the Beast! Destroy it!" She calls, infusing Sara with vicious anger. Vengeful Outrage on Sara: +6 morale bonus to Strength and Constitution, a +3 morale bonus on Will saves, and is immune to the shaken and frightened conditions.

Also, did the Stabbing Beast take -4 on its attack rolls? It should because of Compelling Voice.

The poison requires 2 consecutive saves to resist. I did not apply the -4 penalty from compelling voice, so Sara should have taken 10 less damage.

Zhi shifts to flank with Sara and her weapons flash.

"Let me show what stabbing is all about," she says with a grin.

Her sapped strength returned and supernaturally enraged, Sara strikes out with unerring vigor, kicking the man in his nethers several times before aiming for his core. "I will destroy the beast! Destroy it!" she echoes, furious.

Zhi, that's one AoO for you

Between Maria's stabs, Zhi's deep puncture wounds, and Sara's outraged assault, the Stabbing Beast quickly falls, blood pouring from myriad wounds. The two inevitables try to avenge his death, slashing and pummeling Sara!

120 damage to Sara. Everybody is up! Will roll for Safina and Taldaris later, short on time.

Still riding the high of stabbing the Stabbing Beast to death, Sara grips his scorpion tail and throws him from one kolyarute to the next, bashing them both and leaving the Herald's body battered and broken.

"Eat! Shit!" she cries, her insult punctuated by slamming the dead body of their leader from one and into the other.

Going off the previous ruling of what damage a corpse deals, see here, combined with my Improvised Weapon Mastery and my two Shikigami Style feats raises the d10 damage to 4d8, as per the Enlarge Person table. As an interesting aside in re Chairbreaker, if the last crit confirms, his body is utterly destroyed instead of just gaining the broken condition.

With a flash of speed, Zhi races around to flank the inevitable that Sara is fighting.
